I am now on ao3 and I want to start posting some of my vids there. So I noticed before there was an auction for vids, and then also a fic exchange. Is it ok for just anyone to share their ao3 vids in here when there isn't like an auction or a vid exchange?

Congratulations everyone and THANK YOU so much for participating in this small vid exchange. The vidder's identities are revealed and everyone's welcome to edit in signed versions to their AO3 posts, crosspost vids, etc.

AssignmentsI've let AO3 do it's thing ((it's magical!!)) and when I cross-checked it, there were a couple cases where only one fandom was matchable - but everyone should have at least one. -----That means that assignments have gone out and vid-plotting can commence. HUZZAH!!!

You should've been notified via AO3 and they seem to have it together but please do me a favor and let me know you've gotten the assignment. PM or email, leave a comment here saying I GOT IT (just don't say who you got) --- whatever is easiest. If you do NOT have an email with your assignment, please let me know!!!

Dear VidderSimilar to most fic exchanges and festivids, participants are more than welcome to leave a link to a "Dear Vidder" letter in the comments. Dear Vidder letters are completely optional and are designed to give your vidder ideas of things you're interested in (examples). Just a reminder that your vidder does not have to use your suggestions, matching is on fandom only.

One of the things I find amazing at festivids is the amount of "treats" people make above and beyond the exchange. So why not do the same here? Feel free to browse the "Dear Vidder" letters. You do not have to be signed up for the exchange in order to make "treats", anyone and everyone is welcome.

Details about posting vids will be up in a couple of weeks (after VividCon, is anyone going?). In the meantime, if you have any questions, please let me know.

General Rules/FAQ:By participating in the vid exchange, you agree to make a video in a matching fandom of at least 1 minute in length by September 30th. In exchange, a vid for a fandom you are requesting will be made by a mystery vidder.

When signing up, you need to request at least 3 fandoms you can request up to 6 fandoms. You also need to offer at least 3 fandoms, although you can offer up to 10.

The character and description areas of the signup are available for you to provide additional information about what you like about the fandom, what things you may or may not want in a vid, music preferences, etc. Please be aware that this is optional for your vidder. Also, like other exchanges (ie. yuletide, festivids, etc.) we will also have an optional 'Dear Vidder' post.

AO3 Tutorial: signing up for a gift exchangeThis is my first time using the AO3 collection and challenges as a host, so if you have any questions or run across any issues with the form, please let me know.Also, if you are in need of an AO3 invite, let me know.
